Can never connect when setting up new laptop
Ok, this has happened twice.
I get a laptop to set up in my house (which has wireless and ethernet connections) and even with ethernet plugged in it will not connect to a network. I have to use my mobile hotspot from my phone to get internet, and update the drivers.
What if I didn't have a hotspot? How would I be able to connect to the internet? This happened with my mothers computer and my friends, yesterday. He needed a clean install, updates, etc and this happened again, not sure what is going on, and why I need an external internet source to update the drivers, why wouln't ethernet work?
